In a new @NatureGeosci paper, @AOSC_UMD's Ning Zeng and his co-authors found that wood burial is a "scalable and viable" climate solution. If the U.S. buried 66% of the wood debris from its managed forests, #NetZero emissions could be reached by 2050: go.umd.edu/wood-debris ๐Ÿชต

What does an old log have to do with #ClimateChange? A @ScienceMagazine study led by @AOSC_UMD's Ning Zeng revealed that a 3,775-year-old log lost minimal CO2 due to the soil it was buried in. This information could present a solution for #GlobalWarming. go.umd.edu/wood-vaulting
